What Current Sociology Graduate Students

Are Saying about the Program

"Learning, it never stops! When you want more, you go find it. I have found a great spot to learn more
- the MA Sociology program at WPU. Although I am a non-matriculated student, I plan to stay
and apply to be a matriculated student. My first course is Sociology of Deviance with Dr. Furst
and it has engaged and enlightened me - something I was hoping was going to happen.
I look forward to more challenging and learning as I move through the program. "

- Jeff Dembiak

 “I’ve been very impressed with the faculty and students in the Sociology Department at WPUNJ.
They are very helpful and easy to work with. I felt at home instantly.”

- Mike Prohaska

“If there is one thing that strikes me most about the WPU Graduate Sociology department, it is the commitment, enthusiasm and genuine care that the faculty members demonstrate.
 Each professor with whom I've had contact thus far has been not only a scholar, an educator and an experienced field practitioner, but also a person with passion and compassion that has embraced
his/her entire humanness, and in effect, my own.  More than just cerebral academics,
they are whole persons who recognize that the study of Sociology is empty if it is not mindful
of the fullness of life of each member of a society at large.”

- Anita Morawski

“The program is full of support, whether it be sitting in coffee hour with your peers
or going to a professor because you don't understand something.
Everyone seems very willing to help and make the program work for you
instead of making you work for the program. ”
